thezerobit @anticapitalist.party I post about: #programming, classic #Doom, human rights, #retro stuff, #metal, #synth, other #music, photos, my kids' art, #communism, and whatever. Occasionally absurd or serious. I am open to engagement and discussion and disagreement.

I need this book now. Looking through it online, it even has instructions to build your own sound output device that attaches to the parallel port and uses a resistor ladder (actually, 2 ladders because it is stereo) as a DAC to produce audio. Epic.
It also covers state machines with probabilistic state selection for controlling enemies. That's the technique I used for the AI (that's what we called it) code to control monsters and vehicles in "Godzilla: Unleashed" for the Wii.
